Listen now
Description
In Australia, only 7% of the biggest companies are led by women. Women are significantly underrepresented in decision-making, and the problem gets worse the higher you go. In this episode of Women Are The Business, we take a look at what's behind the gender power gap, from stereotypes to leadership styles. Plus we tackle hot-button solutions, like quotas. We spoke to two women who were at the vanguard - Jan West and Sue Morphet - and leadership expert Jen Overbeck.
